Well, yesterday I found out just why the property next door appears to be abandoned … it is tied up as collateral in a failed business and the holder of the loan is not releasing any part of the collateral without full payment.
So a house that started to be remodeled sets empty except for the feral cat who has taken up residence in the house.without knowledge it is living in a million dollar house
There’s a movie in there somewhere…
A million dollar house around here is a crack shack teardown 
Good for the cat.
Not so good for whatever flooring it has selected as a litter box :disgust:
I am having my own RE theater here.
Chicken Nazi neighbor has her place up again - FSBO… @ almost 30% over the Zillow estimate.
Guess past experience is not a good teacher for her.
Three separate deals fell through last year when priced just $3K higher.
I am tempted to have a friend fake interest, then go to the showing with her.
Maybe I’ll bring a hen…
Meanwhile, Karma is alive & kicking.
How would you like living in a place that has to be kept show-ready 24/7? :winkgrin:

I like the movie idea. It could take place 2008-2010. Cat starts leading folks who lost their homes in the mortgage meltdown to the mansion. (crack tear-down doesn’t work in this scenario) They start making the place totally sustainable without elec/phone/power, etc. Cat becomes YouTube sensation (there’s an opening) and makes a couple million bucks.
Nobody owns the cat - everyone claims the copyright. Take it from there…
Brings new meaning to the phrase that was used for a while by the Texas tourism folks: Texas…It’s Like A Whole Other Country!!!
G.
well this is modest neighborhood, mostly unknown by big bags of money people who like to parade their wealth … and . kitty does not care about any of that as it just seeking shelter… but having such a house for itself seems selfish
Oh, it’s probably sharing with some mice and maybe a possum or two. And soon girlfriends. Or boyfriends. Either way. Soon there will be more. The movie idea gets better: The Home for Homeless Cats?
Invite the cat over. Then post pics of your new cat
ðŸ¡
on a related note RIP Grumpy Cat real name Tadar Sauce
Please trap and have kitty given shots and spayed before you have a colony.
I’ll pay the vet bill if you will do so
^^^^^^^ cloudyandcallie to the rescue, AGAIN. Then we can call it CCC Cat. cloudy,callie, clanter cat.
Maybe the cat is the reincarnation of a banker who wrote junk-mortgages leading up to the 2009 meltdown.
Karma is a…cat?
Oh and please have vet notch an ear for future reference please
Speaking of million dollar homes for sale, around here there’s a big brick monstrosity built on a nice acreage, but remains somewhat unfinished-- no porch railings for example. Probably built more than they could afford and ran out of money. But the online listing was so weird-- despite nice finishes throughout the house-- expensive wood, marble, etc.–they didn’t bother to do ANY cleaning for the listing photos. Like, a half-open loaf of bread on the kitchen counter, so much clutter you can’t see surfaces, a ratty shirt draped over a chair, and bedsheets tacked up as curtains.
That poor realtor, whoever lives there must be a real ass.
Cat is secretly running a very successful Airbnb and is channeling the money into offshore catnip funds. He’s actually part of the mysterious one percent who own and run everything. I mean, he’s a cat, what else could it be?
Poor meower. Rambling around in a $1M house, but still hunger and lonely. Clanter, are you going to go over there with some Fancy Feast in a goblet, as the commercials demonstrate?
The cat decides to run for President. She’s running as an Independent because she’s a cat. Her platform is to ban the killing of mice and rats because she likes mice and rats. There will also be a fishbowl in every house.
